High‐accuracy two‐interval approximation for normal‐moveout function in a multi‐layered anisotropic model

Abstract: This paper discusses reducing computation costs for traveltime calculations in multi‐layered anisotropic models. Fomel and Stovas () suggested a two‐ray five‐parameter approximation that they named ‘generalized’ because it reduces to several known three‐parameter forms. Model tests, demonstrated by the authors, showed that this generalized approximation provided very high accuracy, implying it can be used in place of the exact moveout function in modelling, migration and traveltime inversion. However, detailed… Show more

“…Shifted hyperbola approximation (Malovichko ; de Bazelaire ), rational approximation (Tsvankin and Thomsen ; Alkhalifah and Tsvankin ) and generalized moveout approximation (GMA; Fomel and Stovas ; Stovas ; Stovas and Fomel ) are more commonly employed, because of their simplicity, applicability or higher accuracy. Other known explicit moveout approximations include methods of Alkhalifah (, ), Zhang and Uren (), Taner, Treitel and Al‐Chalabi (), Ursin and Stovas (), Blias (, , ), Aleixo and Schleicher (), Ravve and Koren () and Abedi and Stovas ().…”
